After having seen and read so much about the Sohrabuddin epis years, one might believe one knows it all. Sohrabuddin is now cast as an innocent victim of police excess. However, it would be worthwhile to explore the real facts about Sohrabuddin, the nature of police encounters, and the real issues at stake an underworld gangster who was involved in nearly two dozen serious criminal offences in states of Gujarat, Rajasthan, Madhya Prades He maintained transnational links with anti-India forces from the early ‘90s onwards, until his death in 2005. Working with mafia dons li and Abdul Latif, he procured weapons and explosives from Pakistan and supplied them to various terrorist and anti-national groups (had activity, at least some terrorist acts could have been averted). Sohrabuddin was solidly entrenched in the criminal world for a decade-and time he was killed, the Rajasthan government had announced a reward on his head. In 1999, he had been detained under the National Madhya Pradesh government. In a 1994 case investigated by the Ahmedabad crime branch, he was co-accused along with Dawood Ibrahim and convicted for five yea against the Government of India, planning an attack on the Jagannath Rath Yatra in Orissa, and other offences under the IPC, Arms A investigation, 24 AK-56 rifles, 27 hand grenades, 5250 cartridges, 81 magazines and more were seized from his family home in Madhya P fourth crime was registered against him by Chandgad police station of Kolhapur district in Maharashtra under sections 302, 120 (b), an Arms Act, for the killing of Gopal Tukaram Badivadekar.

Child Trafficking in India" (2013). Fifth Annual Interdisciplinary Conference on Human Trafficking 2013. 6. https://digitalcommons.unl.edu/humtrafcon5/6 This Article is brought to you for free and open access by the Interdisciplinary Conference on Human Trafficking at the University of Nebraska at DigitalCommons@University of Nebraska - Lincoln. It has been accepted for inclusion in Fifth Annual Interdisciplinary Conference on Human Trafficking 2013 by an authorized administrator of DigitalCommons@University of Nebraska - Lincoln. Wither Childhood? Child Trafficking in India Ibrahim Mohamed Abdelfattah Abdelaziz This article reviews the current research on domestic trafficking of children in India. Child trafficking in India is a highly visible reality. Children are being sold for sexual and labor exploitation, adoption, and organ harvesting. The article also analyzes the laws and interventions that provide protection and assistance to trafficked children. There is no comprehensive legislation that covers all forms of exploitation. Interven- tions programs tend to focus exclusively on sex trafficking and to give higher priority to rehabilitation than to prevention. Innovative projects are at a nascent stage. Keywords: human trafficking, child trafficking, child prostitution, child labor, child abuse Human trafficking is based on the objectification of a human life and the treat- ment of that life as a commodity to be traded in the economic market.

  • Failing on Terror Yet Again | Vivekananda International Foundation
    6/1/2018 Failing on Terror Yet Again | Vivekananda International Foundation HOME ABOUT US AREAS OF STUDY EVENTS PUBLICATIONS TEAM MEDIA CAREER CONTACT US Language Failing on Terror Yet Again 26 Feb, 2013 Amb Kanwal Sibal (Member, VIF Advisory Council) View577 Comments 0 Hyderabad is bloodied again by terrorism, exposing once more our failure to marshal the political will, the legal instruments, the orga and the required technical skills and manpower resources to combat this grave threat to the nation. Admittedly, combating terrorism is extraordinarily difficult because a few individuals armed with rage, rudimentary bomb making techn ordinary means of “delivery” like tiffin boxes and bicycles can cause mayhem in crowded localities in our overpopulated and disorganize choose. More importantly, terrorism has a vast international dimension outside not only India’s control but also of countries more powerf determined to fight terrorism than us. At its centre is the sense of grievance nourished in Islamic circles against the enemies of Is legitimacy accorded by religious texts as interpreted by them to the act of killing innocent people haphazardly as redressal. Contrast While it would be unrealistic to expect the government to provide total protection to the public against any possible terrorist atta legitimately expect credible and comprehensive steps to secure their lives against such deadly violence, without being necessarily able success in this regard. The US is oceans away from the epicenter of terror; its neighbours cooperate fully to shield North America drawing its frontline against terrorism thousands of miles away from its shores the US has given itself vast protective geographical depth.

  • Modern Sikh Warriors: Militants, Soldiers, Citizens
    JOURNAL OF MILITARY ETHICS, 2017 VOL. 16, NOS. 3–4, 272–285 https://doi.org/10.1080/15027570.2018.1440500 Modern Sikh Warriors: Militants, Soldiers, Citizens Walter Dorn and Stephen Gucciardi Department of Defence Studies, Royal Military College of Canada and Canadian Forces College, Toronto, Canada ABSTRACT KEYWORDS Central to the mainstream Sikh identity is the concept of ethically- Armed force; Khalistan; Sikh; justified force, used as a last resort. There is no place for absolute rebellion; violence; warrior pacifism in this conception of ethical living. Fighters and martyrs occupy an important place in the Khalsa narrative, and Sikhs are constantly reminded of the sacrifices and heroism of their co- religionists of the past. This article explores how the Sikh warrior identity is manifested in the contemporary world. It examines the Sikhs who, in the 1980s and 1990s, were involved on both sides of the Punjab crisis: those militants who fought for a Sikh homeland (“Khalistan”) and those Sikhs in the Indian army who suppressed the insurgency. The article also looks beyond the militants and soldiers to Sikhs employed in modern security- related professions, the broader issue of Sikh symbols relating to the use of force, and violence within the Sikh diaspora. An examination of the Sikhs in various parts of the world reveals additional uses and consequences of ideology, whether in enlistment in the armed forces of the states in which they live, or in the support of the militancy in India, particularly in the 1980s. The conclusion is that the modern Sikh warrior is a nuanced actor behaving in various ways, some overt and some subtle: the warrior is willing to physically fight those perceived to be tyrannous, but most initiatives have shifted to pursuing justice through non-violent means, such as legal struggles for civil rights.
